Nowadays, computer games are becoming more and more popular in many cities and towns. A lot of
small shops along busy streets have been made into small game houses in order to get more money. These
places are always crowded with people, especially young boys.
In the computer game houses, people spend a lot of money competing (较量) with the machines. It's
hard for one to win the computer, but one can make progress after trying again and again. People have a kind
of gambling psychology(赌博心理) when they play computer games. The more they lose, the more they
want to win. When class is over, the school boys run to the nearby computer game houses. Little by little (逐
